Happy Anniversary to Mommy & Daddy

Happy anniversary to my Mom & Dad, Helen and Luke. Daddy has been in heaven for 21 years later this month and mom will be 90 in June but thank God she is still with us. 

This past Thursday would have been their 67th wedding anniversary. 

They were blessed with four children. Two girls, followed by two boys. We are all still as close as we were growing up. (I am 2nd from the right)

We all grew up and got married. My brother Andy (back L) had 3 kids, Jack (back R) had 3, and Rachel (front R) had 3. I only had 2 kids and with my usual flair for the unexpected, I had twins so only had one pregnancy.

Over the years the family has grown from just mom and dad and four kids to 11 grandchildren and 19 great grandchildren. Three of the grandchildren haven't gotten started on kids yet. And you don't want to know how many grand and great-grand dogs and cats they have had over the year. 

All because two people fell in love.

Tuesday & Wednesday's highlights from this week....

Tuesday was a great day spent with two of my friends. We went to the Ford v Ferrarri movie. Oh my goodness. It was amazing. We went out to eat afterwards. It is always fun hanging with your friends. No matter how old you get. 

On Wednesday, I went antique and thrift shopping with another friend starting with breakfast at Cracker Barrel. I found this little vintage salt dip at one shop.

This little watering can with a cat at a thrift booth.

And a sandwich glass creamer at another one. All three finds together was just $6.00.

After shopping, my friend wanted to introduce me to the therapeutic effect of going to the Humane Society and taking a kitten in to spend time with it. Oh my gosh, the one she got was a bundle of energy. But the one I fell in love with was so sweet and cuddly. She didn't like getting off my lap. I am happy to say though that she had been adopted and was being picked up the next day. It was still hard to leave her though. She was so precious. 

Not in coloring, but her personality and facial features reminded me of my K.C. that I had for 17 years. 

When I got home that night, I vegged on the couch and ate some Kay's Sea Salt Caramel ice cream. The best ice cream ever created in my opinion. 

It was a great two days.

This past weekend....

Last weekend was some Mamaw time for the three youngest grands. I hated waking the two littlest ones up so I tried to be real quite. Colby was going to play in two basketball games Saturday so I let him rest. 

His team won both of the ballgames. He plays his heart out in every game. I know he had to be exhausted.

We took the easy way and had a Pizza Hut pizza party with everybody getting to have some of their favorites.

The next morning, we had pancakes before we went to church. You can tell they all look worn out.

We ended our day with going to the movies where we enjoyed popcorn, candy and a drink. Then I delivered everybody back to their houses and went home and crashed.

It was a great three day weekend. Can't wait to do it again soon.
